So, I was totally planning to drive straight through. This was before I remembered I am no longer in my twenties, have multiple joints and limbs that hate me, and also 16 to 18 hours is a really long time to be in a car. I made it 900 miles before the combination of pain and road glaze caused me to nearly sideswipe a semi truck. This was the point at which I pulled off at the next lodging sign. I actually only have about 4 hours left to Chicago, but it just was not happening. At least not with me arriving alive and all.

So here I am. I actually have no idea where I am. Last time I was paying attention I was in Iowa? Am I still in Iowa? I don't even know. I think I probably am. Whatever the bed is comfy and I will now face plant and arrive tomorrow instead of tonight.

Despite not being able to push all the way through, I have to say I forgot how much I actually love a road trip. There's something about driving along with the radio cranked up and a destination off in the distance that is quite lovely.

Am too tired to think straight. Will update again when I hit Tara's tomorrow.

16-18 hours is *way* too long to do in a single stretch. Get some rest, and have a great time in Chicago!

Thank you for being sensible oh person who is not as crazy as my father.

I remember the time my mother and I and her friend Nancy and daughter Denise were traveling back from Louisiana and they were both just too tired to drive and we stopped at the first place we found which rented by the hour and we were told that with kids, we shouldn't turn on the TV. Of course, the first thing my friend's mom did when we got to the room was turn on the TV and we all laughed at the ridiculous porn.

I'm sure the racous laughter of children disturbed the mood of nearby motel patrons but, it was really really funny and we couldn't help it.
